[spoiler=Episode 2]Wait, does the Bloody Mary Faction mean what I think it means[/spoiler]

This was a so-so episode about three horror stories, it had some funny bits but something just felt off. I did like the 3rd one with the different animation along with the scary ED. The first one is about a teacher who appears to those who are going to fail and harima happens to see him so he does everything he can to pass. I thought the manga version was a little funnier but oh well.

The second one is tenma's turn and she tries to get help from the other girls. She follows Mikoto's advice of associating it to the person you like and yoshidayama tries to copy and fails. Third part was Fuyuki's story about a monster in the school pool. And a bonus fourth story after the credits about Mikoto's pseudo date with Asou with the other 3 making commentary. Next time is tenma's birthday party.

Second week in a row I voted a 1. As much as a fan I am of School Rumble the past few weeks episodes have been painful to watch. I don't know what it is the lack of Harima x Eri x Yakumo except for some bits or the anime feeling rushed from the beginning but I just don't get the same feeling like watching the first season.

We're entering into V.12 material now, so it should start to pick up again, soon enough. I've never much cared for the material that runs between the last couple of eps. of S1 to present. It'll get much, much better from here.

I quite enjoyed this episode. The comedy just seems to pick up in this one. The following parts are my favorites for this episode:

(1) Harima plagued by the retaining-sensei.
(2) Tenma's desperate studying for the term papers.
(3) Eri-chan/Mikoto-chan/Tenma-chan's commentary on Mikoto's date with Asou. It's quite funny seeing her trying to present a more favorable image to Asou.

A good "bridge" episode to another arc. It stays true to the manga, and it delivers absolutely good comedy. The art in the ghost scene was terribly funny (terribly because it did no justice to the beauty of Kozue). Harima running from the Sensei was classic SR humor. The most funny scene yet was the "cacodemon" scene (was it in reference to Doom? Because of the guns and all).

Oh, Akira is so damn cute in that boxing outfit.

Also, Basketball Faction will have a reason to celebrate. XD

I gave it a 9 for delivering SR-quality comedy while still being a bridge episode.

just saw the eps and it was ok...i thought last week was better tho...only funny bits i found is when itoko sensei (must not forget) shot harima twice...the other one being in harima's mind and the boxing outfit by akira was really cute...

the ED of the scary part freaked me out tho -___- i knew something was gona pop up at the last second...

^ i know wht you mean ive seen flash movies like that before that showed something irrelevent then a face poping up when youve let your guard down and an almighty scream -___- i think things like that has affected my mentality

I liked this ep a fair amount, 7/10. It was good to finally see Miko chan after she seemed to have a long absence. Also I always like date eps. Miko chan grew on me--gotta love gamer girls! Eri had a good amount of screen time too.

Yeah I too liked 1 and 3, however 2 wasn't as fresh since Tenma is always falling asleep/eating and screwing up academically.

Mainly there was finally some romance reintroduced, and this time a new one between Miko and Asou which hasn't been explored before. So I think the ep closed on a strong note. I just rewatched the last part and it's quite good, right where Asou crashes on the game and stares at Miko chan. Good music too. Is he hinting that he likes Miko chan or what?

I miss Hanai a little, he's not shown up much lately. No Lala=woohoo! Also, going to Colorado on the next ep?? And how many bdays does Tenma have, was the other one a fraud?

The next is a birthday PARTY, so it isn't the birthday itself. The class is too busy with exams to hold a party on her exact birthdate.

Spoiler for The Future:

Look for the future episodes to pick up its pace, since all of the flat chapters from volume 11 were shown already. As Swampstorm said, the next episode is already in volume 12, and in my opinion, volume 12 is one of the best (if not THE best).

I actually was quite amused by the Mikoto/Asou date and his wistful
reflection in the arcade "we're closing sir...." long after she beat him.

I also rather liked Akira, Tenma and Eri sort of ganging up on her
forcing her to tell them about the specifics of the date. Hilarity.

Harima's avoidance of "Retaining-sensei" was hysterical.

There was something else I thought was quite amusing but I'm not
going to mention it because when I saw it the first time I was totally
amused by it and it's so low key that mentioning it could defuse its
amusing properties.
